What is OPR?

Thanks for the clarification Ed. I am sure that you are correct in that most regional events have similar strength. These numbers are a great way to begin preliminary scouting efforts. The ability of your sheet to update in real time is very valuable as well.

In post #1 of this thread Ed has a link to a paper explaining what these numbers mean.

Thanks

Same way it's calculated every year. A augmented matrix is created by inputting every match score and each team that competed in that match. Each "team" is essentially a variable that is solved for, giving the OPR for that team.
The "DPR" can be created by using the opposing alliance's score in the augmented column.
